I don't see why it would make a difference who you book through.Best to check the wording in your policy to be on the safe side.
We ussually book direct with owners of villa's - it looks like all ok with your checks etc so if it were me I would go ahead and save the extra cost too

As said. Homeaway are a nightmare for owners payment and fees wise. You never seem to get what you expect.
The only thing that concerns me is the owner doesn't want a damage deposit because it's too much hassle.? Surely not as much hassle as paying for any damage Rob |

Op, it sounds like you've done as much due diligence as you can. With that level of knowlege, I would have gone ahead and booked.
I would also mention that over the last 2-3 years there has been a significant reduction in Villas advertised on HomeAway, due I believe to the large service fees now involved.

So that would presumably explain why we got the error message when we originally tried to make the payment online on Homeaway? The more I think about this for a booking fee of about $170 however much I disagree with it and would rather not pay it for the extra cc protection we get I think I would rather pay that way but if the owners are unable to accept payment through Homeaway then I'm not sure what we do next?

I don't think that your insurance will cover the risk that you exposed yourself to by sending your money by bank transfer.

We have booked a Dibb villa, they haven’t asked for a damage deposit either. And I’m happy to bank transfer then the money, as requested.
Hope you get booked, and enjoy your holiday |
